NEWPORT, Tenn. (BP)--It took a broken heart for Michele Washam to finally realize that she was breaking the hearts and lives of countless women.
In 1995 while living in Delaware, Washam designed what may have been one of the first “ladies only” adult pornographic websites, Just4Ladies.com.
That site still exists 10 years later, but with a new focus —- Jesus Christ.
Washam, who now serves as the secretary for West End Baptist Church in Newport, Tenn., is not proud of the fact she designed several adult websites. She readily admits she was not “addicted” to pornography. For her, it was all about money.
“It was a huge industry at the time,” she recalled. “My income was incredible -- an average of about $24,000 a week.”
Washam said that though she felt some guilt -- being raised by devout Catholic parents, she knew better -- the money kept her from pulling the plug on her lucrative website.
